Hello all



looking at getting this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

anyone on here seen it before? or knows anything about it?

oh, and I'm a convert from the "celica-club"

 

he sold a impreza sport wagon 2 months ago, funnily enough he was selling it a week later, think why that might be!!

if you are sure this is the car for you, definatly get it hpid (small hint) and also have it checked over by a good garage (AA, RAC do these I believe)

IMHO it looks horrible and for that money you could have a much better example, like this one on this site (a friend of mine was interested in this but bought another before even looking at it ) http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthrea...90#post5257990

I bet you would get it for £4k??

welcome to scoobynet by the way

cheers mate. Just thought with it being so "different" it may well have been a members on here at some stage.


It defo has been looked after by someone, maybe not the guy who has it listed, the front and rear clusters must have cost a bit on there own, and the exhaust is awesome! defo a few quid in mods on it.

Being a complete newbie to scoobies, is there anything specific I should look for? also, what's the best way to tell for definate what model it is?

 

looks like a wrx not an sti

 

looks like a wrx to me. it could have had 10k spent on it, its still a K reg wrx. you can but a standard wrx saloon for around £2500 now, with the money you save you can make it your own to your taste.

I wouldnt touch that car with a barge pole personally!

 

£4500 for a 1992 car? That's way overpriced. Just keep an eye on the For Sale forum here and you should be able to find an good car owned by an enthusiast.

 

have you been to look at it yet?

 

yeh, it seems OK, worn drivers side lumbar support the gear stick is sloppy, but gear change is spot on, starts no probs from cold, no dodgy smoke or out, generally looks and sounds fine.

Not paying the asking price, swapping for a celica that's worth about 1500 - 2000 plus a bit of cash.

thanks for the input anyway guys, oh and it is HPI clear.

 

whats the mileage mate?

 

it's showing 81k, previous mot's seem to back this up.

 

What he said!

 

I bet those lights keep the intercooler temp nice and high as well

 

That's very nasty, you can do better for the money. Keep Clear.

All IMO of course.

 

well it's mine now, I was only asking if anyone had seen it around, not after people's opinions on what they think of it, but thanks anyway.

I'll keep in mind what you's have said, maybe tone it down a bit?

 

Congratulations .................

Not my cup of tea ..... hope its not trouble ....

Thanks.

Hope to start some more "constructive" threads once I get used to the car.

 

lol that lasted a long time then

why dont people just listen when you give them advice???

jamo

 

STI my ****.

Way overpriced and it looks awfull, please don't buy it !!

Rob

 

the point I was making is that he has said he has bought it once, but its been relisted again

so I am guessing he realised it wasnt as described or worst

 

bag of bollox if you ask me

 

As above and well said
Please listen to the advice and steer clear

 

i concur with bag of bollox comment mr kingofturds !

 

why thankyou .that bloody thing has more lights than my christmas tree

 

Ho Ho Ho merry christmas
If my tree had that many lights my leccy bill would be through the roof

 

 

if you look you will see the original head lights are now vents . it looks awfull though

 

I didn't think any scooby came with ESP...

 

The seller's terrible spelling would worry me before i'd even seen the car! Was he home-schooled or something?

Geez

 

its worth buying a car thats been previously owned by CHICO even if it is a dog of a car . HA HA AH

 

Just noticed that , it really doesnt work for me , they used to be headlights for a reason ( Thats where there supposed to be ) not air intakes
